Set forth below is the text of a comment that I recently posted to the discussion thread for another blog entry at this site:
Okay, so you will be covering the death threats and job threats. How about the prison sentences, jury trials and settlement payments. Will we see that as well over at the new board?
I’ve never said anything about participating at any new boards. All of that is in your head.
The story will be told on the front page of the New York Times. Once it is told there, it will be common knowledge at all boards, old and new.
None of the things that you ask about are problems once they have been exposed. The problem is that people are embarrassed about them. And so people are reluctant to bring them up and people are reluctant to discuss them when they are brought up. They are now part of our history. Once death threats and job threats were used to stop us from learning about what the last 37 years of peer-reviewed research teaches us about how stock investing works, they became a part of our history as a nation. I did not do that and I cannot change that. My hope is that I can keep the prison sentences to a length shorter than they would otherwise be by exposing all the criminal stuff sooner than it might be exposed. That’s how I can play a positive role and so I hope that I can do that.
You’ll know everything that you need to know about the prison sentences at an appropriate time. For obvious reasons. If you want to help get things exposed, then help. If not, then watch to see how things play out. I will do everything in my power to help you out. But I will never cross the felony line myself.
But you of course knew all that.
Hang in there.
